Future Residents

Welcome, Future FIT Residents

Congratulations on joining the Fashion Institute of Technology community! We are excited to welcome you to campus and to your new home in our residence halls. Living on campus is a unique opportunity to build connections, experience the energy of New York City, and create a supportive environment where you can thrive academically and personally.

What to Expect Living on Campus

Your Room and Living Space
Your residence hall room is more than just a place to sleep — it is your personal space to study, relax, and connect with others. We encourage you to make it your own while being mindful of the shared community experience.

Community Living
Residence life is about collaboration and respect. You will have the chance to meet fellow students, engage in programs, and participate in activities designed to help you feel at home. Our staff, including Resident Assistants and professional team members, are here to provide guidance and support.

Resources and Support
From wellness services to academic support, you’ll have access to a wide range of resources designed to help you succeed. If challenges arise, there are always people available to assist you.

Don't Just Take it From Us 

I love meeting new people and being able to hang out with my friends whenever! I also love getting to experience the cultures of other races and religions.

I like the community that the campus brings, and it has allowed me to form connections with many of my peers. Living on campus definitely makes the act of making friends a whole lot easier, and I wouldn't change it for the world.

I enjoyed being surrounded by people who have the same interests as me and getting to live in New York City with people who I now get to call my best friends.
